Ben Affleck sulks (again) over viral 'Sad Affleck' video

Poor Batman, erm, Ben Affleck. Not only is his latest directorial effort, Live by Night, sinking with both critics and audiences, but the only thing everyone wants to talk about is Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

That was three movies ago, people (if you count his uncredited cameo in Suicide Squad).

On the junket trail promoting Live by Night, Ben was forced to sit through yet more Batman v Superman questions during his interview with BBC Radio 1.

"I would like to talk to you about Batman v Superman. Small film. Independent production. Not many people have seen it," the interviewer said as Ben shot him the bitchiest resting face glare.

"Little film," Ben interrupted.

"What has a production like Batman v Superman, which is colossal, taught you as an actor and director?" the interviewer continued. "Because I imagine there was a lot to be learned form that."

Ben: "It taught me not to do interviews with [Superman portrayer] Henry Cavill where I don't say anything, and they can play Simon and Garfunkel tracks over it. That's one thing I learned."

Henry Cavill? Simon and Garfunkel? For a minute there, we thought he was going to lash out at his interrogator over the line of questioning. Instead, we got to relive a now-viral nugget.

For anyone who may have missed it, Ben was referring to a joint interview he did with Henry to promote Batman v Superman. As Henry answered a question (one that no doubt was not about Live by Night - or any other Affleck film), Ben just sat there staring into space like he'd just lost a family member.

As the video interview did the rounds, someone turned down Henry's voice and cranked up Simon and Garfunkel's 'The Sound of Silence'. Voila! Instant viral moment.

We're glad Ben can joke about it now - even if that viral moment has gotten way more attention than Live by Night (possibly) ever will. Erm, sorry, Ben.
